Recent form

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with their last six games yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The Owls have struggled to find consistency, alternating between positive and negative results. A particularly concerning match was their 6-2 home defeat to Watford, which significantly impacted their goal difference. On a more positive note, Wednesday have managed two clean sheets in their last six outings, including a solid 2-0 victory over Norwich. The team's goal-scoring record has been modest, averaging just over one goal per game, whilst conceding an average of 1.5. Interestingly, two-thirds of their recent matches have seen fewer than 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards tighter, lower-scoring affairs. Despite their inconsistent form, Sheffield Wednesday have managed to maintain a mid-table position, currently sitting 15th in the Championship.

Cardiff City

Cardiff City have experienced a mixed run of form in their recent matches, with their last six games yielding three wins, one draw, and two losses. The Bluebirds enjoyed a particularly impressive victory against Plymouth Argyle, thrashing them 5-0 in a high-scoring encounter. Despite this, Cardiff find themselves in a precarious 22nd position in the Championship table, having amassed 15 points from 15 games. Their defensive record has been relatively solid, conceding an average of 0.83 goals per game in their last six matches and keeping three clean sheets. However, their recent form has taken a downturn with back-to-back losses against Luton Town and Blackburn Rovers, potentially indicating a concerning trend for the Welsh side.

Recent home/away form

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent home form has been somewhat inconsistent, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six matches at Hillsborough. The Owls have struggled defensively, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game, which is highlighted by the particularly high-scoring 6-2 defeat to Watford. However, they've shown resilience by bouncing back with a clean sheet victory over Norwich in their most recent home fixture. Despite their mid-table position, Wednesday have managed to keep things tight in most matches, with 67% of their home games featuring under 2.5 goals. The team have also demonstrated an ability to engage in thrilling encounters, as evidenced by their 3-2 victory over West Brom, suggesting they can be competitive against stronger opposition.

Cardiff City

Cardiff City have struggled to find their form away from home, failing to secure a victory in their last six away matches. The Bluebirds have managed three draws and suffered three losses, indicating a concerning lack of consistency on the road. Their goal-scoring woes are evident, with only three goals netted in these six games, averaging a mere 0.5 goals per match. Defensively, Cardiff have been somewhat more solid, conceding 8 goals, though they were particularly vulnerable in their 4-1 defeat to Hull City. The team have kept just one clean sheet during this run, and their matches have predominantly been low-scoring affairs, with 83% of games seeing fewer than 2.5 goals. Cardiff's away form has undoubtedly contributed to their current league position, sitting 22nd in the Championship table with 15 points from 15 games.
